Frost, on the roof of my car!
Oh for warmer (but less picturesque) weather. Where is this global
warming? |
 |
This is an interesting
one, upside down ice on the inside of a water butt lid! |
| We do get some snow in South
Wales, but it doesn't usually last for long. This is the entrance to our
'new' part of the garden. |
 |
The first sign of a new year: a
Prunus in blossom |
 |
|
 |
and on the same January day, a clematis bud |
 |
and some snowdrops |
|
in extreme close up
|
 |
This was a bit of a
revelation to me, I didn't know that the inside of a snowdrop had a pretty
green interior. |
 |
 |
This is a close up of a pretty Australian flower
called a Correa that prospers in a pot near the back door. the flower is only about
8mm in diameter. |
 |
Croccii |
| In mid February, the acacia is flowering. |
 |
Another January picture; this
of a lichen on a twig on a tree in the drive. |

 |
The common or garden D......... |
 |
In April time, this tiny blue flower takes
over the lawn by the side of our drive. |
|
Summer has arrived
|
 |
and with it a bit of
passion...The Passion Flower. |
 |
 |
Penstemon |
 |
Rock Roses and Garden Geraniums |
| Acacia in residence next to the water butt. |
 |
Plumbago |
 |
 |
a few trophies from around the world adorn
our house wall. |
Its an orchid, but I
don't know which one! |
 |
|
A Canna, bought in summer 2003,
still flowering in an unusually warm September.
